Public Skills Content Section

You can add Skills Center as a subscriber to a skill content section, which makes the section a Public Skills content section.

Any skill that’s added or updated in a Public Skills content section reflects in various pages in the Recruiting application and career sites in these scenarios:

• When a candidate adds or updates a public skill while applying for a job in external or internal career sites, the recruiter can view the updated skills in the Public Skills content section of the job application. Based on this new skill, the recruiter can also filter job applications from the Advanced Filters page, if you’ve enabled Oracle Search for job applications. The updated skill also appears in the Skills Center page after the candidate converts to an employee.
• When a candidate becomes an employee and adds or updates a public skill in Skills Center, the skill appears in the content section of the candidate’s profile. The recruiter can also search for the candidate based on the new skill.
• When a recruiter adds or updates a skill in the Public Skills content section of a candidate’s job application, and the candidate becomes an employee, the skill appears in the employee’s Skills Center page and in Connections.
• When a recruiter adds or updates a skill in a Public Skills content section of a job requisition (which can be done in the details page of the requisition), it appears on the job details page in external and internal career sites and in the Agency portal. Note that only the skill name appears in these three areas, but not other skill attributes such as comments or skill description.
